Right I'm after a tent, essentially, i've been going camping a lot lately and i'm sick of sleeping in my car.

I did have a large family sized canvas tent at one point, one sleeping compartment and a living compartment, that was great, my uncle gave it to me after using it once, it was quite expensive, then i used it once and my mum decided to bin it (cheers mum). Something similar to that would be ideal, proper heavy poles and canvas skin.

So I'm after something nice and heavy duty, a budget of £100-200 and around a 3 or 4 man but big (I'm 6'6" and like to stretch out in my sleep).
While we're at it, could someone recommend me a big cushty sleeping bag.
 
What part of camping do you need to sleep in a tent. I esentially turn it into a camper van.
Car, back seats down, 2 kingsize duvets as a base, pillows, a double duvet as the duvet. It's comfy but i'd prefer a decent tent.

Camping isn't about where you sleep, it's about the nights, make a fire, few drinks, cigars, chill round the fire and whatever.
